A couple things…

The “conflict“ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.

And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

greetings! we are the united states of america. our key exports are rc planes that bomb hospitals and lake-drinking robots that tell people to kill themselves

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Maybe I'm kirking out but the unreality of this war is wild. People posting that thousands of Kurds are fighting the regime for the CIA, while the Kurds say it isn't happening. Every video of a missile attack I just have to assume is AI whether it is real or not.

Scoop: Trump officials broker massive U.S.-Venezuela gold deal The arrangement shows the tightening commercial bounds between Venezuela and the U.S.

We're plundering Venezuela

GOP senator joins police in ejecting anti-war protester from Capitol Hill hearing A Senate Republican assisted several police officers in ejecting a man who interrupted a Capitol Hill hearing on Wednesday to object to the U.S. and Israel's war with Iran.

this is literally right wing propaganda. cbs news cannot be trusted.

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

just a randomly prediction, i think people are sleeping on the virality and durability of the "tim sheehy breaks the marine protester's arm" story in the coming days and weeks

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

We went from making up reasons like "weapons of mass destruction" to you know what, fuck it we don't need to even lie, the president "had a feeling" that they pose a threat so we just bomb them so we can. A country doing this can't expect peace inside.

And yet people get on this site every day and call people like me childish "accelerationists" and "revolutionaries" for telling them we (Black people in particular) cannot vote our way out of this.

Objective present reality and successive centuries of murder be damned, I guess.

Again, re “Trump’s Iran war is *just* to distract from the Epstein Files” crowd:

The US has tried to exert control over who rules Iran since before Jeffrey Epstein was BORN.

The Washington Post is now posting what amounts to an ad for A.I., in this case for Anthropic, as news.

Good morning I just saw the IDF post a video of their bombers flying to Iran with Fortunate Son by CCR playing in the background and that may be enough internet for the day.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I haven’t felt this dead in years

hey guys how's it going

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

The Alysa Liu creep-out taught me that zero percent of young MAGA guys who came of age during Trump’s political rise have ever meaningfully interacted with women.

Screenshot of usembassydoha Instagram account post with US flag at the top and the headline "Guidance for Americans in Qatar (as of 4pm EST on March 3): The U.S. government is ready to help Americans return home safely from the Middle East if you choose to take advantage of the options available. *Hamad International Airport suspended all aircraft movements due to the temporary closure of the Qatari airspace, and Qatari maritime routes remain closed. *The Salwa land border crossing to Saudi Arabia is open. The U.S. government cannot guarantee your safety if you choose to depart using this option. *Receive the latest security updates by enrolling at http://step.state.gov *For consular help, call 24/7: +1-202-501-4444 (from abroad) or +1-888-407-4747 (from the U.S. and Canada)" Post caption reads "usembassydoha: Event (Update #5): on March 3, the Department of State ordered non-emergency U.S. government employees and their family members to leave Qatar due to the threat of armed conflict. If safe to do so, Americans should leave Qatar now."

Today in US Department of State Catch-22s, FUBAR extreme, "there are only idiots at the wheel of this monumental disaster" edition: "Leave Qatar now, there's no safe way out."

All it takes to debunk the theory that thousands of kids were pushed into gender-affirming surgeries is to talk to literally any trans person who has tried to get gender-affirming care of ANY kind. It's extremely difficult.

Israeli map showing all of southern Lebanon in red with yellow arrows pointing to north of the Litani river

The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.

The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.

Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.

very cringe of trump's guys to be saying "our epic chad warfighters have been unshackled to unleash maximum death and killstreak carnage" etc but if they're asked if this is a war they're all umm, wait, no, this is not a war, pls don't put in the paper that this is a war

Anti-vaxxers are bad parents. Not vaccinating your child is abuse.

We should eliminate all non-medical exemptions for vaccines.

Sorry, not sorry.
